Low Voltage Low Power Square-Root-Domain Filter

Lo, Wan-Chen 03 July 2006 (has links)
In this thesis, a brand new first-order low pass square root domain filter (SRD filter) based on operational transconductors amplifiers (OTAs) is presented. The SRD filter consists of a translinear filter and two OTAs. We improve Cruz¡¦s SRD filter [15], reduce the number of transconductors from 3 to 2, and replace Class-AB linear transconductors with OTAs. The circuit has the least number of transistors up to date, therefore, the least power consumption and least chip area. The circuit has been fabricated with 0.35£gm CMOS technology. It operates with a supply voltage 1.5V and the biasing current varies from 0.05uA to 15uA. Measurement results show that the cutoff frequency of the filter can be tuned from 250 Hz to 29 kHz when the external capacitance C is 1nF and the cutoff frequency can be tuned from 1.8 kHz to 237kHz when the external capacitance C is 100pF. The total harmonic distortion is 1.03% and 1.01% when the external capacitance C is 1nF and 100pF and the power consumption is 116£gW.
